A very rare original printing of this original work that has been praised by scholars and philosophers as being one of the most influential and culturally important base of civilization as we know it. Proof that not a single one of the sixty or so sayings in which standstill is attributed to the earth and the movement of the sun and all the stars can be given an interpretation as of the opposite were actually the case.
